- Pleasure to hear Raftery and Eagle on the call. Miss hearing Raftery doing our games
- I mentioned a while ago (I think after Georgetown) that if Brissett can become a legitimate consistent scorer, we become a serious NCAA threat. I also had mentioned that I thought Dolezaj had more to give on the offensive end. Believe he averaged 17 a game last year. Nice to see both these guys step up these last few games and become legitimate threats in their own way. It says something when we can beat a good team like Miami without Battle doing much. I truly believe if Brissett and Dolezaj can keep this up consistently, we can beat anyone on a given night.
- Howard cutting down on his turnovers has been big as well. His flip shot is also virtually unblockable for most guys. Good to hear he has been practicing his ball handling with Devendorf.
- I made fun of Chukwu's hands earlier in the year, but he has gotten better and much stronger with the ball.
- The inseason improvement of several of our guys, including FT shooting, is very encouraging. Often in the regular season, we reach our peak early and don't feel our guys improve their shooting-That has traditionally happened more in the offseason. Very gratifying to see and need to give a lot of credit to the players like Chukwu, Dolezaj, as well as the staff.
